Maybe the question is not the right one but what I mean is, what other activities do you follow or practice PERIODICALLY and DEEPLY? (let me explain these, damn:)

Movies - not the casual movie goer or the one that has a few dvds and goes every week but the fan that KNOWs about movies, has watched a lot of OLD movies, really LOVES the art.

Literature-the same, not the casual "da vinci code" reader (not that I have anything against that book, but I mention it as a bestseller) but the average reader of old and new masterpieces.

Painting - lover of the art, knows his Picasso, Dali, Miro, rembrandt, goya, velazquez, The T....

History - I mean, the news and politics fan that loves to READ but not novels and stuff but HISTORICAL or SOCIOLOGICAL books.

Sports - either the huge fan who follows a sport on tv (any kind of game, knows the rules, etc) or the one that practices it REGULARLY and WITH WINNING PURPOSES. (I don't know how to explain but I hope you get the point)

EGAMES - the gaming freak, the one that own a few consoles and plays at least a few minutes a day.

I have interest for movies mainly (have more than 600), WAS a huge soccer fan (till I got into soccer-paradise United States) was an average reader (don't know what happened, prog and music itself killed the library mouse), and I have to say, I will play Egames till i die.... I also love history.

So you? (Multiple votes allowed)

voted for belly-enhancing. i also love a lot of classic science fiction books and classic gaming so I'll vote for the closest options.

I find history tedious as best and embarassing at worst - reading about all the ridiculous and terrible things the human race have "achieved" makes me long to be a part of a different one altogether ;P

I read almost constantly. More often than I listen to music and spend time on here combined. Shocked

Seriously I have read so much. At least 20 books in the past 3 months.

Modern physics and cosmology (science in general), literature (mainly science fiction, beat poetry, ect.), history, politics, and SEX.
 
I used to be really into model rockets but I just can't afford it any more with all the music I buy (Cry). Same with video games but I don't regret that as much.

I see my poll is incomplete... feel free to adapt any option to your needs... drawing would go in graphic art... even though my definition was in another direction but I think it would be right

I understand where you're coming from. There are too many a-holes on skateboards (those that are in it because of the trend) that give bad reputation to those who aren't (those who do it for the love of it). I personally can't stand them and I'm a skater!

It may be true that there are a lot of asshole skaters, but I have some friends who skate and very nice people.
